Within the last week or so - my dropbox has started crashing - does anyone have any idea what to look for - I completly reinstalled it yesterday - it ran fine for about 12 hrs and then started crashing again

 

here is the output from the systemctl status command

 

[root@IronicsArchVM_v4 ~]# systemctl status dropbox@root
? [email protected] - Dropbox

when I restart it I get the following before it fails again

[root@IronicsArchVM_v4 ~]# systemctl start dropbox@root
[root@IronicsArchVM_v4 ~]# systemctl status dropbox@root

I dont have any ideas on what to look for anymore

 

Thanks

I don't know but you are however just as likely (if not more) to get an answer about Arch on their forums.

 

HTH

have not had any luck searching there
